Top Foods Deals

I did make it to Top Foods for the 25% off sale, but I didn't find any crazy deals other than the liquid formula.

Tortilla Chips - $1.50 ($.37) = $1.13
Pancake Mix - $2.49 ($.62) = $1.87 for 2 lbs
Bisquick Mix - $3.29 ($.82)($.50 MC) = $1.97
Krusteaz Mix - $8.99 ($2.25) = $6.74 for 7.5 lbs
Sour Cream - $.59 clearance ($.15) = $.44 each
pull-ups - $9.99 ($2.50) = $7.49
Canning lids - $2.99 ($.75)(1.00 MC) = $1.24
Ricotta - $4.29 ($1.07) ($1.00 MC) = $2.22
Organic Carrots - $2.00 ($.50) = $1.50 for 2 lbs
Gala Apples - $1.69 ($.43) = $1.26/ lb
Pink Lady Apples - $1.99 ($.50) = $1.49/lb

DH was out of deodorant so I figured I'd check prices at Top. I really hate to spend any money on 'drugstore' items, but DH likes plain deodorant without antiperspirant and it's hard to find that for free. I bought 2 that were $1.44 each after the 25% off and a $1.00/2 MC.

The large cans of formula were originally $19.99. I had a MC for $5.00, a 'check' for $5.00, also from the manufacturer, and there would be a $5.00 25% discount leaving only $5.00 total cost per can. I was excited to get these at a great price. However, at the register, the cashier wouldn't take my $5.00 printed MCs so I was only able to get them for $9.99 per can. This is about the same price as Costco, but as it saved a trip to Costco I went ahead and bought them anyway.

The liquid formula was a much better deal. Those were priced at $6.49 each and I had a sheet of 4 'checks' from the manufacturer for $5.00 off. After the 25% discount these only cost $4.86, but the cashier, again, wouldn't take the checks. My total purchase had to be over $5.00. So I tossed in a King-size candy bar for $.75 each and got my totals for separate transactions over $5.00. I picked these candy bars because everything in the check out lane was $.99 for the regular, but these were $1 for the king-size.

Overall I was disappointed with the cashier, but she was probably irritated with me and my coupons and needing several separate transactions. Oh well.
